isaac herr has given him a run for his money. the final and latest polls show that benjamin netanyahu is in fact trailing isaac herzog. he is the co-leader with livni of the zionist union party. we will perhaps get an idea in the next few days and direction of the elections. it is quite a process in israel because at this point people cast their votes for parties, not for candidates. so then they have to work out of the end of that. there's a lot of horse trading and a coalition of sorts has to be formed. it takes time. we are looking now at isaac herzog casting his ballot. he and livni have given benjamin netanyahu a surprise and a shock as we don't know really at this point who is likely to be the next prime minister. we'll keep a close eye on this. there it is. everyone taking this photo opportunity of possibly the next prime minister of israel. we don't know, of course. we never do. but at this point it is neck in neck. a very very tight race. >>> it sounds like he might be going to say something -- all right. leave it for no

and i mean before this he was trailing his main opponent isaac herzog. how did the exit polls get it so wrong, and why did everyone appear to be writing netanyahu off so quickly when we're looking at these results? >> reporter: that's a fascinating question. gets into sort of the statistical anomalies of the polls. that's trying to extrapolate from a small population to the entire country of israel. it's interesting to note that in the past few elections, exit polls missed by seven or eight seats different parties. a few years ago, we saw the seven or eight seats to a man polling with 12 seats. he ended up with 19 that made him a powerful political player. now it's obvious as the results have come in where the seven or eight seats have gone. they've gone straight to benjamin netanyahu's likud party which has given him a very strong argument to be the next prime minister, to put together the coalition. will be interesting to see where the pollsters got it wrong, where they missed so badly and predicted this as so close, rosemary. >> now he appear to be st

the opposition leader, isaac herzog called benjamin netanyahu to congratulate him on his election win. the next step is for israel's president to invite netanyahu to form a coalition. 99% of the vote is in. it could lead to 29 seats compared to the zionist union with 24 seats. prime minister netanyahu has promise there had will be no palestinian state created if he wins this fourth term. the zionist union does back the idea of a two-state solution, and you've also got this tomorrow the joint israel arab union, the small parties that banned together and ever now taken 14 seats in the can knesset. for people not familiar with israeli politics, talk us through the process now. it's not just a case of forming a coalition. there are formalities go through. >> indeed. all eyes are on the president to see if he will tap mr. netanyahu's shoulder and ask him to form his coalition government, but if we look at comments made late yesterday evening by the president, he said that he's going to work towards a unity government, meaning he wants mr. netanyahu and the opposition leader, isaac herzog a

meanwhile, his challenger isaac herzog leads him in the polls. a gap in the polls came out after netanyahu and herzog said if you are okay with the status quo, the last six years under benjamin netanyahu, vote for benjamin netanyahu. then he went on to say if you want change and you want different leadership and new direction for israel vote isaac herzog and zionist union. this is the important day. voter turnout. both sides urging voter turnout. that could be critical in the race. john we will see how this plays out. we will get the first numbers after 10:00 p.m. tonight. >> that is 4:00 p.m. our time. stay tuned to cnn. this will be exciting after the polls close. oren liebermann, thanks. >>> developing this morning, president obama says the u.s. cannot afford to have the republicans undermine the negotiations with iran. the president told "vice" founder shane smith that he is embarrassed for the senators that signed the letter. jim acosta has more. >> reporter: officials say iranian negotiators raised tom cotton's letter to the ayatollah khome

if they don't go to the lekou, the next prime minister will be isaac herzog. the right that's not a good development. so we're in for the last several days. 1/5 of the israeli electorate, 1/5 is probably undecided. i'm not making any predictions. the last time i predicted it which was in 1996. bill clinton invited simon perez to the white house. most of us were persuaded that netanyahu would never become the prime minister of israel. now with the except of david bengorian, he's the third longest running prime minister in israeli history. >> if there is a change, what might happen with the american/israeli relationship if netanyahu loses? >> you know, i think if isaac herzog is in a position to form a government and can form a government, i think one of the most striking things, contrasts, will be a fundamental in the u.s./israeli relationship. herzog has talked about the centrality of our relationship to israel's security. it's clear they'll be popping champaign corks at the white house if herzog can form the next government. i think they're persuaded on sever

something isaac herzog does not disagree on.an: from over here, we read and intangible and unquantifiable idea that israelis are kind of tired of benjamin netanyahu. does that resonate over there? elliott: for some people that in the past have voted for benjamin netanyahu, there's a sense of wariness. if he wins his elections, it will not be his third straight win, it will be his fourth win total. he could end up being the longest-serving leader of israel , surpassing david ben-gurion, the founding prime minister. which is remarkable for a man who israelis either love him or hate him. ben-gurion was much less of a divisive force. there is an element of wariness. people who might have voted for him in the past. if they do not believe land should be returned or given to the palestinians in exchange for some kind of peace, they will be leaning to the right. you should be looking at this in terms of blocks. is the right wing, the right-wing parties including netanyahu going to have enough votes to form a coalition? more so than the

stephen isaacs of the investment committee. stephen, glad to have you with us. a lot of the rhetoric came -- i listened to that news conference. triumphant in his approach. it is a bit early. >> i'm glad you picked up on that. we should say "bravo yuriko -- "bravo." the last time we were in the abyss his comments were we will do whatever it takes. here he is 2.5 years later and he has managed the situation. now he has played his cards. he has come back with a confident projection of growth and inflation. mr. druggie is telling us -- mr. draghi is telling us the solid is the best growth. >> we were doing the ecb show yesterday. euro-dollar at a tenure low. is this a currency trader? >> that is one of the reasons why the german should be leading the charge. in the sense that what is in this mixture of changes that may deliver a different picture for europe? one is in the changing currency. is it already in the price? anyone that is buying european equities -- as if they suddenly woken up to the fact that qe is starting next week. i would be concerned about that. d

obviously isaac herzog will go after hatnuah. he's a right wing they're comes from likud. he only left two years ago. the question is will he take part in a coalition that could support the arab unity party that did so well today and is now the third largest party. it will be very interesting to see how this plays out in the days ahead. >> woodruff: so in the end, martin, we know the economy was an issue. clearly peace. security was an issue. is there a sense... do you have a sense of which was more important to voters in the end? >> well, in the end it has to be said it was the economy, because benjamin netanyahu is pushing that security line. security, vote for me, you'll be safe. so he was running commercials saying he was the bibi-sitter, a play on his name, bibi netanyahu people use. but clearly voters didn't want to talk about security. they wanted to talk about the housing crisis and the high cost of living. in the end that's what basically gave netanyahu a hard time. and he fought for his political life and made all these statements that very sharp turn to the righ

but it appears this was not enough to close the gap on isaac herzog's zionist union.rucially, though no single movement will get near the 61 seats needed to command a majority in the parliament. and as in previous elections, there are likely to be weeks of coalition talks before a government is formed. the difference this time is the emergence of a united israeli palestinian block. four parties coming together in forming the joint list. galvanizing israeli palestinians who make up one fifth of the population. the joint list could win as many as 14 seats, making it a potentially crucial player. but in all aspects of israeli politics there is a problem, members of the arab organization pledging they will not be part of it. there are so many things that could happen in this election. there could be a coalition formed from the center as it is told in israeli's spectrum of politics. there could be a coalition formed to the right. and it could be a government of national unity. so every single permation is possible. we'll get a real indication of which way it is going, when

monika: let's look at isaac herzog. what does he have going for him to mount such a strong challenge to netanyahu? >> he has taken on the task to look at his failure, to address the socioeconomic issues. those issues that many israelis would point out like rising housing prices and the high cost of living. that is what middle-class israelis are talking about. that is what they're hoping for that he will do something. of course, he was criticized that he is not a charismatic leader. if you could be a leader in a country like israel. you have to be very careful, they are not always is accurate. we have less than an hour now to go. we see the first exit polls if he has convinced israelis to work for him. monika: it will be interesting to see how these exit polls will turn out. terry: we are joined by the chair of the green party chairing the parliamentary group. mr. beck, wide do you think benjamin netanyahu has abandoned the principles? >> that he changed publicly his position on the issue -- i think this interview has, i
